This is designed to give you the peace of mind you need in the event you pass away.<\/p>\n<h2>How Does it Work?<\/h2>\n<p>For most policies, you pay a fee for an amount of coverage on your life. If you pass away with this coverage, your loved ones named in the policy can make a tax-free claim for the amount of money insured to cover funeral expenses, pay off a mortgage and more.<\/p>\n<h2>Do I Need Life Insurance?<\/h2>\n<p>If you are married, own a home, have children or significant financial commitments or want greater peace of mind, it&#8217;s something you should consider. The money you leave behind can help your loved ones reduce their financial stress as they struggle with your passing.<\/p>\n<h2>How Much Do I Need?<\/h2>\n<p>Everyone is different, which is why it&#8217;s important to select the right level of coverage for you and your situation. The financial peace of mind for you and your loved ones can be secured affordably with a monthly or annual payment schedule.<\/p>\n<p>Learn more about how you can get a <a href=\"https:\/\/bluecross.ca\/life-insurance\/\">Blue Cross Life Insurance<\/a> quotation and purchase the right coverage for you online or by phone in as little as 15 minutes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3084 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/bluecross.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shingi-rice-pdjOYejqXUI-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"happy and playful woman carrying another woman on her back\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From our Partners at Blue Cross Life We all have questions about choosing the right life insurance.
